How many fifths are in a pound?

Well, you have to split it into five parts. 

So 100=1 pound

100÷5=20⇒20%

So you change 20% to a decimal

20%⇒20⇒.20 (divide by 100)

You then multiply

There are 16 ounces in a pound

16×.20=3.2ounces(oz)

There are five fifths in a pound or to be more exact, there are five 3.2oz in a pound

How many different committees can be formed from 10 teachers and 37 students of the committee consist of three teachers and two
pashok25 [27]

Answer:

<em>79,920 different ways</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

Combination has to do with selection:

If we are to select 3 teachers from a pool of 10 teachers to form a committee, this can be done in 10C3 number of ways.

10C3 = 10!/(10-3)!3!

10C3 = 10!/7!3!

10C3 = 10*9*8*7!/7!3!

10C3 = 10*9*8/3*2

10C3 = 720/6

10C3 = 120 ways

Similarly, selecting five 2 students from a pool of 37 students to form a committee, this can be done in 37C2 difference ways;

37C2 = 37!/(37-2)!2!

37C2 = 37!/35!2!

37C2 = 37*36*35!/35!*2

37C2 = 37*36/2

37C2 = 37 * 18

37C2 = 666 ways

<em>Hence the total number of ways that the 5 committees can be selected is expressed as 10C3 * 37C3 = 120 * 666</em>

<em> 120 * 666 = 79,920 ways</em>

What connection exists between the coordinates of the vertex and the equation of the axis symmetry
svp [43]
The vertex of a parabola is the maximum or minimum value, and it’s represented by (x,y). The axis of symmetry is the vertical line that runs through the x axis, and also runs through the vertex. This means that the x value in the vertex (x,y) can represent the axis of symmetry.

sweet [91]

We can get the percent by taking 406 / 2900 as a decimal, then multiplying by 100. 406 / 2900 is 0.14, then multiplied by 100 is 14%.
